Shlomo Riskin of the Gush Etzion settlement bloc says US president is like villain of Purim story, Netanyahu akin to Mordechai

ed note–as it is with virtually ALL things originating out of the Jewish mindset, the biblical story of Esther is more than likely a complete fabrication, other than possibly a few mentally ill Persian Jews going out and robbing an elderly, defenseless Persian Gentile, killing him and then inflating the story so as to ‘inspire’ Jewish minds for future generations.

Nevertheless, the latest antics of Riskin in comparing Obama to the biblical villain Haman–who, according to the Esther tale was murdered as a result of Jewish skullduggery and intrigue–must be understood as a deliberate statement coming out of the mouth of Netanyahu & co concerning the kinds of plans (conspiracies) being hatched against Obama’s personal safety if he doesn’t ‘get right’ with the god of Israel.

Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, a prominent American-Israeli Orthodox rabbi, has compared US President Barack Obama to Haman, the villain of the Purim story.

Riskin, the longtime chief rabbi of Efrat, a West Bank settlement in the Gush Etzion bloc, made the comparison during a speech at the Jerusalem Great Synagogue on Saturday night, The Jerusalem Post reported.

“The president of the United States is lashing out at Israel just like Haman lashed out at the Jews,” he said. “I’m not making a political statement. I’m making a Jewish statement.”

Riskin also compared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Mordechai, who along with niece Esther is the hero of the Purim story.

“I am being disrespectful because the president of the United States was disrespectful to my prime minister, to my country, to my future and to the future of the world,” Riskin said.

Riskin led the Lincoln Square Synagogue, a modern Orthodox congregation on the Upper West Side of New York, for 20 years before making aliyah in 1983.

Ties between Washington and Jerusalem have sunk to new lows in recent weeks over disagreements between Netanyahu and Obama regarding negotiations with Iran and peace efforts with the Palestinians.

House Speaker John Boehner controversially invited Netanyahu to address Congress earlier this month, where the prime minister urged lawmakers to thwart a nuclear deal between Iran and several world powers, which is backed firmly by Obama. The visit, which was not coordinated with administration officials, was said to greatly anger the White House, as Netanyahu was perceived by critics to be publicly undermining the president.

Netanyahu was also castigated by the Obama administration for saying, on the eve of Israel’s March 17 elections, that he would not allow a Palestinian state on his watch, drawing an American threat to reevaluate its approach to the peace process.

The White House rejected Netanyahu’s post-election clarification, in which he said he was not opposed to establishing a Palestinian state in principle, just not under current circumstances. He said he still supported a sustainable, peaceful two-state solution, but that the region was increasingly dangerous and that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas was refusing to come to terms with Israel as a Jewish state.

The PM also apologized for Election Day remarks about Arab Israelis voting “in droves” — for which he was criticized at home and abroad, notably by Obama — saying he never meant to harm the feelings of the minority community.

  1. Don’t you just love how every day of the week Jews and Zios like Hagee cast and recast people as some Bible bad guy as if they were speaking for God? These people are mentally diseased.

  2. Your right this is another Biblical Fairy Story . If you read the Bible many times and try to rationalise it as relating to reality you come to the conclusion that the Jews were trying to put the “fear of God ” into other nations this went on continuously when occupying Palestine that their “one God ” was better than the other Gods locally . And it worked ! bigger countries for a while treated them gently until countries like Egypt said Enough (already ) -Jewish comment ! and invaded like Persia did also. Jews were never to be trusted even when under siege in Jerusalem by the Romans they Twice came out to say they surrendered pulled daggers abd swords hidden away and attacked the Roman Legions before running back in to shut the gates . Obviously this upset the Roan General who killed many of them .They werent even loyal to themselves but raped and plundered other Jews holed up in Jerusalem . So you can see why the Romans flattened Jerusalem they didnt think much of them. Why tell the Truth when a Lie sounds better has always been their motto.

  3. Yawns. These things make it so much easier to believe that the makers of children’s fairy tales were, indeed, Jewish. They simply NEVER stop with the dreck.

  4. anyone that claims to be a Jew need to pay retribution for all the people they murdered and displaced in Biblical history, it’s all documented in the Bible and the Torah even some of the numbers. Jews killed man, women and children, including their livestock. of course I’m being somewhat facetious but it does stand to reason. Most of the stories in the old testament are Once Upon a Time, Fairy Tales but I do believe it’s true they murdered and pillaged everywhere they went when they could. And we all know they still do today.

  5. I’ve long maintained that “The Book of Esther” was most likely written long after the fact for Jewish War propaganda purposes.

    I find this summary in the “Introduction to Tobit, Judith and Esther” found in the 1966 “The Jerusalem Bible” annotated study Bible edited by Alexander Jones very interesting:

    ————————————————————————————————————————–
    “In the Vulgate, the three books of Tobit, Judith, and Esther are placed after the historical books. Some important manuscripts of the Greek version put them after the wisdom writings. Together they constitute a small literary group with several distinctive characteristics of their own. . .

    . . . The Book of Esther has two forms: one long, the Hebrew; one short, in Greek.

    . .. All three books were admitted to the Canon at a late date . . The status of the Hebrew Esther was still being discussed by the rabbis in the 1st century A.D., but the book has subsequently become very popular with Jews. . .

    . . . The books all belong to the same type of literature. These stories treat history and geography with a good deal of freedom. . .

    . .. The Book of Esther is somewhat closer to history: the city of Susa is correctly described, and certain Persian customs are accurately observed; Ahasuerus (Hebrew transcription of Xerxes) is a well-known historical figure and the delineation of his character agrees with what Herodotus says of him.

    On the other hand, it is strange that one of the tolerant Achmenid dynasty should agree to sign the order for a Jewish progrom, and still stranger that he should authorize a massacre of his own subjects and that those 75,000 Persians should offer no resistance.

    Moreover, at the time indicated by the narrative, the queen of Persia and consort of Xerxes was Amestris; history leaves no room for either Vashti or Esther.

    And if Mordecai was indeed deported under Nebuchadnezzer, Est 2:6, he would have been one hundred and fifty years old by the reign of Xerxes.

    Of course, the Book of Esther serves its purpose every Purim as a psychological conditioning tool to program an “Eternal Victim” and “US vs.THEM” mindset onto the Jews while giving them a common “Eternal Enemy” in the personification of “Haman.”

    THE Holocaust(TM) myth is just an updated version of The Book of Esther with “The EVIL White Europeans” replacing “The Evil Persians” and “Hitler” replacing “Haman”.

    Now, any “enemy” of The Jews or the World Zionists is quickly called a “NAZI” or “Hitler” to invoke that Purim blood lust revenge programming. . . while any discussion on the matter is instantly drowned out by a Zio-Media chorus of “anti-Semite!!!” not unlike the graggers used at Purim to drown out every mention of “Haman”.

    Of course, the Jews still love to pull out “Haman” for that extra special attack on their enemies as evidence by the above article claiming President Obama to be the new “Haman”.

    Leopards may be hard to see but they never change their spots. The “7-7-7 hidden hand” shadow machinations of these “Elders of Zion” may not be immediately apparent, but the tactics are always “by the Book” . . . 😉

    peace.

  6. “And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made for Mordecai, who had spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon. ~~So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king’s wrath was pacified.” (Esther 7, verses 9&10). “Wherein the king granted the Jews which were in every city to gather themselves together, and to stand for their life, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that would assault them, both little ones and women, and to take the spoil of them for a prey.” (Esther 8, verse 11).
